That Husband of Mine...

...is at it again!!! He whisked me off yesterday for a romantic overnight stay at an American hotel in Warsaw for my birthday. We had been there about three years ago and had enjoyed it so much that he even requested the same room. It was a wonderful, welcome break from the everyday life of being mom, wife, teacher.

Here is my one and only picture to prove it. This is our complimentary room service breakfast that they brought us this morning...

The Works!!!

While I'm sharing pictures, I want to share some pictures from the team's Christmas program that we put on Saturday night. We invited all our English students, plus our friends totally about 70 people. Pretty amazing. The children preformed a very meaningful Christmas play "From the Scribe's view" interspersed with singing. The team helped with some songs and we had time for the audience to help sing Christmas carols (Polish and English) as well. Truely, it was a lovely evening from the candle-lined window sills to the haybale-poinsetta-lantern backdrop to the three sweet angelic angels come to minister to the shepherds to the Christmas tea and the 140 cinnamon twists that disappeared after the program. I thought the message of the evening really was powerful if the people could understand all the words that were said and sung.
